On 4th July 2024, a team of 30+ from Phoenix are taking on a 54-holes-of-golf charity challenge at Mill Green, Welwyn Garden City, to fundraise for Parkinson's UK. Across the three rounds, the team will play near 12 hours of solid golf, collectively walking 350+ miles whilst taking thousands of shots!

Parkinson's is a progressive neurological condition which impacts both the brain and the body more significantly over time. There is currently no cure, but a range of treatments can help with relieving the symptoms and securing quality of life. The Parkinson's UK Charity does amazing work supporting those with the condition, pushing for excellent health and care, pursuing new treatments, and generally aiming to build a community of support. Any fundraising directed towards this page will help with advancing cutting-edge research into the disease, developing new technology and devices that help with treatment.

In addition to medical treatment, it is vitally important that those living with Parkinson’s have access to a supportive care environment, and that these carers also have the resources and support they need too. Multiple Phoenix colleagues participating on the day – including Mike Bateson the organiser – have experienced the importance of care when it comes to addressing Parkinson’s and this is one of the key reasons we are looking to fundraise.

At Phoenix, we recognise that caring can impact any of us at any time and through our Caring for Carers initiative, we aim to help the millions of people who work and care to better balance their challenges – whether they be personal, financial, professional or emotional.”

Through this fundraising challenge, we are aiming to raise £5,000 for Parkinson's UK - please donate and share among your family and friends. Any donations at all are hugely appreciated and help make a big difference!

Thank you
